Company Description

While many companies want to improve the proverbial mousetrap, Logitech International is more concerned with making a better mouse. The company is a leading maker of mice and other devices for controlling computers, including joysticks, trackballs, digital pens, and keyboards. It makes more than a quarter of its revenue from pointing devices. Its LifeSize unit offers HD videoconferencing equipment that includes phones, cameras, microphones, and headsets. Logitech sells its products directly to manufacturers -- including most of the world's largest PC makers -- as well as through distributors and retailers worldwide. Europe, Middle East, and Africa account for more than one-third of sales.

    Competitive Landscape Brief

    Demand is driven by consumer income and the rate of product innovation. The profitability of individual companies depends on manufacturing efficiency and effective marketing and distribution. Large companies have advantages in economies of scale in manufacturing, marketing, and distribution. Small companies can compete effectively by offering specialty products or components in system solutions, such as speakers in a home theater system. The industry is capital-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is about $420,000 per year. Audio and video equipment competes with PCs and game consoles in the consumer home entertainment market. PCs and game consoles are covered in profiles of the Computer Manufacture and Electronic Gaming Products industries. US manufacturers of audio and video equipment face significant competition from imports, particularly from China, Mexico, and Japan.
